1º Modelo Classe S

As duas primeiras criações de Daimler-Benz foram os modelos Stuttgart 8/38PS, e o Mannheim 12/55PS. Em 1927 surge o primeiro Mercedes-Benz modelo S, de Sportlich (desportivo), sigla adoptada até hoje na Classe S, seguido pelo SS (Super Sport) e SSK (Super Sport Kurz, desenvolvido por Ferdinand Porsche) introduzidos em 1928. Foram estes modelos que estabeleceram a reputação luxuosa dos carros MERCEDES-BENZ. Certamente os modelos mais admirados e desejados dessa época foram os modelos 380, 500K e 540K surgidos respectivamente em 1933, 1934 e 1936.
